He was one of the most notorious Nazi war criminals, infamous for his deadly experiments on twins. But at the end of WWII, he simply disappeared. Despite a global manhunt by Mossad and the allies, he would die a free man, 34 years later, in Brazil. Who was Dr Mengele? What did he do after the war? And why was he never caught?
